QB Pat Ramsey

I like how people on this board are throwing the hat in on Ramsey after some bad preseason.

Remember a few short weeks ago when we were all cheering him to be the starter so impressed with what he did last year. That hasn't changed he is still the qaurterback of the future and he is still good.

Yeah he has looked bad in the first few games but he is trying to wash the stink of Spurrier off of himself. This will take time it takes time for a QB to learn and unlearn offenses especially bad ones like Spurriers.

In for one magoing to stand by Ramsey because he is going to have to play this year and he will need fan support.

Count me in as a supporter! I honestly can't say that Ramsey is doing any worse than Brunell is. They both are as Gibbs has said: rough. But that's just it, they have the talent and potential, just a little bit rough around the edges from having to learn a new offense. Ramsey is JUST NOW coming off a foot injury that has kept him off the field for almost 9 months. If this is how we look after the season opener I might be a little worried, but as of now I still see a GREAT offense waiting to be born, and still think Ramsey is the man to lead it.

If Brunell doesn't complete that 60 yard rainbow to DMac, his stats look awfully similar to Ram's. So I wouldn't exactly say Brunell is doing so much better. The difference between the 2 is that right now, Brunell looks a little more comfortable on the field. Ram looks a little lost and frustrated, but I chalk that up to the pressure of having to compete... something he hasn't had to due before. Plus, he's still a young player, so he's going to need more time to adjust.

I love Ramsey. His is the only jersey I have right now, and I'm behind him all the way, even if he doesn't get the starter's job.

I don't think we're wishing bad for Ramsey, most of us want him to play very well. But, by the looks of Ramsey and Brunell's throwing SO FAR, Brunell has the edge. I, for one, hope Ramsey starts playing real well and gets a hold of this offense, because even if he doesn't get the nod, he's gonna be playing somewhere down the line, and probably sometime this year. I'm a Ramsey fan, I hope he starts cookin.

ramsey def needs a confidence boost..many are writing him off, which will do nothing but make it harder for him to climb out.

i think his preseason isnt going to well so far becuase hes still shookin up from the beatdown he recieved last year

He'll come around, I haven't given up on him yet. I agree that Brunell probably has the edge right now, but there are 3 games left.

You simply cannot demand a trade because you aren't handed the job, then don't perform when you are given the chance to win said job.

Point blank.

Put my name on the bandwagon... I guess

Ramsey has looked awful, even against Denver's 2nd string. He needs a year or two on the bench watching and learning.

I agree. Ramsey has a arm from hell but his pocket presence is trash. If he can learn how to move around and buy time in the pocket and feel presure he could be one of the best.......oh yeah and put a little touch on the ball sometimes even Brett manages to do that with his rocket arm....

I do agree with those sentiments. I am as solid a Ramsey supporter as there is, but rskins is right. He needs to get his act together and do something. I don't know why he's playing so poorly right now, but he needs to get it together. I hope he wins the job, but he hasn't shown anything thus far.

Took Favre years to finally figure that out, though.
